that doesn't matter at this point because president obama delayed submitting a new budget proposal to congress this month by blaming the fiscal cliff battle in december for putting his team behind schedule. that means congress has to choose to vote to extend another continuing resolution before march 27th or we face a government shutdown. last week i talked to senator johnny isakson, a republican from georgia, on this show. he said a republican shutdown would be a bad idea. >> making sure social security checks are delivered is important. but it's a better idea to run the country the way it's supposed to be done. if you have to change the tax code, do it but in the context of the macro sense not the micro. >> can't agree more. david gergen, cnn senior political analyst and professor of public service and director of the center of public leadership at the harvard kennedy school and ron brownstein, executive director at the "national journal" magazine in washington. good to see you. ron, republicans could push president obama to push further spending cuts by threatening to shut down the
